Official | Fernando Aristeguieta joins Nacional

Nantes forward Fernando Aristeguieta has joined Portuguese side Nacional on an 18-month-deal.

The Venezuelan will move to the Liga Nos side, who are currently 17th in the division, and will be hoping that he can finally add to his goal tally after a baron few games for Nantes.

Aristeguieta made six appearances this season, five of which in Ligue 1, and failed to score in any and only racking up 70 minutes on the field all season. Given the relegation battle that Nacional are in, they need Aristegieta to start firing in some goals as soon as possible.

The 24-year-old joined Nantes in 2013 from Caracas, and spent time away at Red Star in Ligue 2 and Philadelphia in the Major League Soccer. Overall, the Venezuelan has played 89 games for four clubs and has scored 17 goals in the process.
